You have Lidl, Aldi and Rewe all within a very short walk.
Lidl and Aldi for the food and Rewe for drink would be my recommendation. The 2 nearest Italians are very cheap - wander down to Pinocchios if you like a bigger pizza - They're mahoosive for the money.

Think Jo and I may need to order new t shirts, the Wagon name was a short sighted decision by the looks of it. Any non rude suggestions for a new name?

[NL03Scooby]

Payment sent!

[scotty]

Ordered a hoodie let's see if it arrives before I go on holiday my fingers are crossed .

[scotty]

My wife doesn't want me to put my car on the track so I was wondering if anyone would let me be a passenger please .

E will give you a good ride. The lap of the ring would be good fun too.
I speak from experience.......of the ring lap not ring cheese.

No Ring sticker for you then.

Passenger lap no props, or you could follow me round on a very slow sighting lap..

You don't know Ian's definition of slow then

You can't drive all that way and not go round the Ring, even if its just a slow lap behind someone.

Claire has said she's not coming round the circuit as passenger this year so I expect I'll have an empty seat too.

[Steve_PPP]

Just a thought, are there garages at the hotel we can use to dump tools/cleaning gear/spare wheels etc when we get there?

Not got a spare wheel for mine at the moment and car is getting raised by 10mm all round just incase .

Agreed. Scotty, you have to do it, even if its just the once. I only did one lap but it was an awesome experience, and one I will never forget. And, at least you can say you have done it. I went out late on the Friday and it was pretty quiet (apart from BIG E and STEVEPPP clattering past me lol). Just keep an eye on your mirrors and don't go trying to break any records and youl'l have great fun. For me, once I'd done it I was happy to watch the others go around with a beer in my hand!!!

I might do 1 or 2 slow laps in the scoob your welcome to hop in or follow if I do! , One of these days we will have to do a scooby train round the ring for a club snap!

[scotty]

You all think my car needs raised here is a pic of the back wheel and how low it looks what do you recon peeps
ImageUploadedByTapatalk1429796995.043999.jpg

[Ginola]

It looks maybe 10mm too low, it's all about the roll centre (drive shafts don't want to point into the ground under the car) clearances might be tight at the front going up and down the ramps to get on tunnel, but should be fine.. It's a lot worse getting on and off ferry's

Cheers Dave spoke to the garage they are going to raise it 10mm to be on the safe side .

[555_Si]

If worried about being low, just go round outside of carasol.

[Scooby Si]

Definitely got to have a drive round having driven all the way down there Scotty... It's well worth it.

You just need to keep an eye on your mirrors... If you have a passenger to help keep a look out as well it's even better

My car was pretty low but I didn't have any issues with the train (I did book and get on as a high vehicle on the single deck) or the track!

The only other thing I would say is 'E's idea of a slow lap and yours might be a bit different!!!
